Steps:
- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line the base and sides of a 20cm square tin with baking parchment. Beat the butter, sugar, vanilla, 1 tsp of the cinnamon and the cloves together with an electric whisk until pale and fluffy. Stir in the flour and ground rice first with a spoon, then get your hands in and knead to a smooth dough.
- Halve the dough and press one half evenly into the base of the tin. Spread the mincemeat over the top, leaving a 1cm border around the edge. Roll out the remaining dough between 2 sheets of baking parchment to a 20cm square, then slide onto the mincemeat. Seal around the edge with your fingers gently press all over until dimpled, then prick all over the top with a fork.
- Bake for 25-30 mins until lightly golden. Mix the granulated sugar with the remaining 1/4 tsp cinnamon and sprinkle over the top. Cool in the tin before cutting into squares. Will keep for 3 days in an airtight container.

CHRISTMAS MINCEMEAT SQUARES
Because of the whole wheat flour, I've always felt these squares were somewhat healthy. Maybe I'm kidding myself, but I definitely can say they're delicious, and perfect for any holiday goodie platter.

CHRISTMAS MINCEMEAT AND OAT SQUARES/SLICES
A great and EASY alternative to Mince Pies and these are healthy too! I always make a batch or 2 or 3 or 4 of traditional mince pies (!!) at Christmas time, but these are ALWAYS requested by my family & friends as well! They can be made throughout the year for a quick and easy snack; ideal for lunch boxes and picnics or charity cakes & bakes. They are REALLY good made with my Recipe #184762. Get the children to help too--they are SO easy to make & it gets everyone involved in the festivities!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 200°C or 400°F.
- Grease a shallow baking tin, 11 x 7 inches.
- Melt the butter or margarine gently in a large saucepan. Add the sugar and mix well.
- While the butter and sugar are being heated up, mix the porridge oats & flour together in a bowl.
- When the butter & sugar mixture have turned to liquid, take the pan off the heat and add the flour & oat mixture gradually, stirring all the time.
- When it is all thoroughly mixed and blended, spoon HALF the mixture into a well greased shallow baking tin.
- With the flat of your hand, press the mixture down firmly all over - making sure it gets into all the corners!
- The firmer you press, the less crumbly it will be when it has been cooked & therefore easier to pick up and eat!
- Next, using a tablespoon, spread ALL the mincemeat over the top - making sure it is evenly spread and goes into all those corners again! Press it down with the back of the spoon.
- Then spread the remaining oat & flour mixture over the top - again pressing down firmly and making sure it is evenly spread.
- Bake the mincemeat slices in the centre of the oven for about 20 minutes OR until the top is tinged brown - NOT too dark and brown.
- Remove from the oven & with a sharp knife, cut into 12 squares - BUT make sure to leave them in the tin until they are cold. It is easier to remove them this way.
- Sprinkle with icing sugar if you want and store in an airtight tin, that's if they are not gobbled up straight away!
- These can be re-heated in a warm oven OR microwave - then serve with cream or brandy butter as a nice, festive dessert.
- Be careful NOT to overheat in the microwave as mincemeat can really burn your mouth if it gets too hot!

Steps:
- Heat oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7. Combine the mincemeat with the nuts, cranberries, apple and lemon zest.
- Unroll the pastry and lay it on a lightly floured work surface. Slice off a strip across one end to leave a 23cm square of pastry. From the strip, cut out 15-30 star shapes (depending on whether you want 1 or 2 stars per slice). Thinly re-roll the pastry trimmings until it is all used up. Lay the pastry square on a baking sheet and scatter over the ground almonds. Carefully spread the mincemeat mixture over so that it comes right to the edge of the pastry (the mincemeat shouldn't spread when baked). Lay the stars in lines across the mincemeat, slightly overlapping them if necessary to fit, so you can cut out 15 slices when baked. Brush the stars with egg to glaze, if you like.
- Bake for 15 mins or until the pastry is golden. Leave to cool. Meanwhile, mix the icing sugar with 2 tsp lemon juice. Drizzle over the cool pastry and cut into 15 slices.
